About Good Manners.

Books on etiquette are staple literary
wares. just at present there seems to
be more than the usual demand for
them, and some recently published
treatises on manners are having a great
run. This is 4 good thing, for it is a
moral and civilizing process for people
to give thoughtful consideration to their
dues to their fellow-beings. 1.-THE study
does no more than to teach them not to
perform knife-swallowing tricks at the
table, it will be beneficial. There is,
however, danger that in learning
rules of conduct withoat understanding
their underlying philosophy a slavish
pedantry may be the result, or even
that worst form of snobbery which con-
sists in having lady and ''gentleman"
on the brain.

Raised Check

A pension check. originally drawn
fer 81. dated May, 1885, which had
been raised to $2,450 and had passed
through several banks and private
hands, was recently presented at the
eash-room of the Treasury for payment
by one Of the city banks. The paying
teller, Mr., w. II. Gibson, at once de-
tected certain irregularities in the
check, and reported the facts to
Treasurer Hyatt. The latter commune
Gated with the Pension Agent. who in
formed him that no such check had
been issued by him. 1t was subse-
quently ascertained that the name of
tire payee and the number of the check
had been changed, and also the date to
May 81, 1887. The check had been so
cleverly manipulated that no suspicion
had been aroused by the local bank
officials, and it is the opinion of the
Treasurer that had the check been pre-
sented 10 an inexperienced person at
the Treasury Department, 1t would
have been cashed without question.

Mexican Mining x,pes.

The bonanza kings of Zaoateeas are
the Eseobedos, and tie King bee of the
family is the Hon. Jesus Escobedo.
His income, in the language of a Ia
catecas American. is three times what
John w. Mackay's Is. When he was a
boy Jesus EScobedo peddIed charcoal.
Associated with Jesus in the mining en-
terprises are Jose Mariq and Cavetapo
Escobedo. Besides the three brothers
there are other branches OF the family
also engaged in mining. Jesus Esco-
bedo is one of the largest owners in the
Neta Grande. from the discovery of
which the existence Of Zacatecas. AS 4
mining camp, dates. He has been a
Deputyin the lower branch of the Mex
can Congress, and a Senator rs well.
Jesus Eseobedo confines his attention
almost exclusively to mines. His broth
er, Jose Maria, is one of the largest
real-estate owners in the city. In one
locaiitd he has 1000 tenants of the
poorer class, and his rent-roll amounts
to $3.50 day. a branch of the family
owns hacienda eighteen miles long
and five miles wide below the city.
When the Escobedos think corn is get
ting too cheap they run a little corner
and tie up 100000 bushels in their
granaries until the market stifIens.-

Her black hair lay loosely over the

At midnight we were present at a

an Indian Chief who had suddenly died
and was to be cremated the following
day. Clad in high top boots, each per-
son carrying lantern, we tramped
over painless bit of country some dis
lance back from the shore, through a
muddy, Shiny soil. Some time before
we reached the spot the groans and
shrieks of the mOurners conld be heard.
Arriving at the Chief hut, our guide
first crawls in, crouching low, and dis
appears. Soon emerging, he leads us
in single file through the opening, only
only two feet high. A weird sight pre-
